Today's website of the day is stumbleupon.com a browsing tool that helps you discover more relevant sites when surfing.

Based on user feedback, websites are given a collaborative rating. So, when you “stumble” you only get back hits from sites you know have been given the thumbs up by other users. You can then add your opinion and so on it goes.

The StumbleUpon toolbar acts much like an intelligent version of Google's “I'm Feeling Lucky” button. Select snowboarding, and rather than a random site about the sport you'll get back a hit from a site already rated by fellow “stumblers”. It brings a little quality control to your surfing experience, which is welcome and overdue.
